I hope Leon shows up like 5 minutes into the stalking, blows away monster-Alyssa with a rocket launcher, and drops a one liner while Grace cries like

I'm down for stalker sections like this but I'm hoping it's a 50/50 with the action-heavy Leon portions and that his presence is substantial

This is another potential problem. If Leon isn't in the game, or if he's in it for 15 minutes (like the Chris section in Village), there's going to be a lot of fans who are going to be upset/disappointed that their favorite character wasn't in it, and that the game was slower than they thought it would be. And that wouldn't be the fault of Capcom. It'd be the fault of one guy "leaking" bullshit information.

It could still be true Leon is in the game, but I really think fans should seriously consider keeping their expectations in check.

Isn't this the RE7 or RE8 director so I'd imagine if they put Leon in somewhere it's either going to be similar to Barry in Revelations 2 or it'll be a mini campaign like they did with Chris Redfield.

Looks more fun in first person to me

I would absolutely love it if this were the case.

Kind of looks goofy looking. Is this scary?

If you are a re vet then no, nothing will scared us at this point. I mean we went thru the same shit these characters went through multiple times. We are more vets than Chris and Leon combined lol

Put Crimson Heads into the game and make them inflammable.

 

[Arachnid]

Looks like you get the ability to fight back against the stalker pretty darn early. Hopefully there's rewards for temp drops like Nemesis vs it just being a waste of time/ammo like X to incentivize/reward fighting back.

This is exactly why jaw dropping surprises should be locked away tightly from leaks and all. Like those epic twist games or movies, where best explanation is just no explanation at all: "just go and see for your self"
Although I highly doubt she can go all game long without support and with the clear hint of the police station it is basically impossible to see Leon somewhere somehow playing a role, and well clearly he's the starboy of the series so I do expect at least some very decent segments with him.

I like Leon but I dont need him be in every game, we already got to play as him in both RE2R and RE4R.

Like I said before one of the most overused characters. And Ada Wong is guaranteed to follow him if he shows up.

I'd rather have other characters that aren't used as much show up like Carlos or Jake Muller. Once Leon shows up it's Leon time all the time.

Why is the protagonist wearing the world's noisiest clogs in those video previews?
For a demo about avoiding a predator, she sure clumps around the place with very loud footsteps.

You know what, at that point Im gone playing Dead or Alive Xtreme Fortune, fuck that shit.

 

[GrayChild]

An interesting snippet from the demo:

So apparently some parts of the game are actually designed with third-person camera in mind first. I bet all sections with Leon will be like that.

 

[FeastYoEyes]

I standby RE7 being overrated. If I don't want to replay a Resident Evil, something isnt right with it. RE Village is also ruined by stalker sections.

 

[semiconscious]

jeez! we sure there's enough whining, whimpering, & moaning? i mean of course i'm still in, but that was just so fucking relentless...

 

[R6Rider]

Hoping they announce another PSVR2 version

I hope so too. It's THE way to play the games.

 

[XERXES_89]

they're selling the same game for the third time and people are freaking out. RE Engine characters looks 2 generation behind.

RE8 is the same game as RE7? Absolutely not lmfao

 

[Ristifer]

I hope Leon takes over 80% of this game, just to piss people off who say he's over represented in these games. People acting like he fucked their partners or something.

 

[Jesb]

I'm expecting some dramatic entrance by Leon. Grace about to die and saves her ass.
